TAXONOMY As many as 10 subspecies of White-cheeked Goose were described by the AOU (1957), five of which (interiorm maxima, parpives, taverneri, and hutchinsii) were assumed to occur in Nebraska by Rapp et al. (1958). Since then there have been additional attempts to delineate sub-specific relationships. Palmer (1976) attempted to clarify evolutionary histories and relationships among populations of modified the AOU (1957) classification.
